Returning result sets from Transact-SQL procedures

Returning result sets from Transact-SQL procedures

SQL Anywhere uses a RESULT clause to specify returned result sets. In Transact-SQL procedures, the column names or alias names of the first query are returned to the calling environment.

Example of a Transact-SQL procedure

Example of a Watcom SQL procedure

The following is the corresponding SQL Anywhere procedure:

CREATE PROCEDURE ShowDepartment(in deptname VARCHAR(30))
RESULT ( LastName CHAR(20), FirstName CHAR(20))
BEGIN
   SELECT Employees.Surname, Employees.GivenName
   FROM Departments, Employees
   WHERE Departments.DepartmentName = deptname
   AND Departments.DepartmentID = Employees.DepartmentID
END;
